Monthly Board Meetings

We welcome OpenStreetMap Foundation members to observe the public board meetings and ask questions
Public board meetings are typically held online once per month and we welcome OpenStreetMap Foundation (OSMF) members to observe the meetings. You can become a member of the OSM Foundation even for free, if you are an active OpenStreetMap contributor.

Dates of 2025 public board meetings
Please see the list below.

- We ask that observers mute their microphones, and to preserve bandwidth, to refrain from turning on their webcams.
- At the end of the meetings, anyone in the audience may add comments or ask questions in the chat or voice channel.

Public meetings are also added to osmcal and to this Framagenda calendar (which also includes non-public board meetings). Approximately one week before the public meeting, there is an announcement on osmf-talk, the mailing list for OSMF members (you need to be an OSMF member to subscribe. All messages are available here).

About board chats
From May 2020 onward the board also holds mid-month board chats, not open to observers. The agendas and draft minutes are linked below.

Online calendar: https://framagenda.org/apps/calendar/p/cDnygiHq4aLGZ6pA
Showing public and non-public board meetings, including face-to-face meetings, meetings with guests and some Annual General Meetings (November 2017 onward).

Add future board meetings to your calendar
If you want future board meetings to be automatically added to your calendar, you can subscribe to the following iCalendar link. Instructions on how to do that depend on which calendar software/service you use. The link is provided for your convenience. Please note that:

  • It might not work when Framasoft servers experience problems.
  • You might get delayed updates, depending on how often the calendar service from your side syncs/checks for updates.
  • Both public and non-public meetings are added to this calendar. The later ones have a note in their description about being non-public.

About the OSMF videoserver
In 2020 we shifted from audio conferences using Mumble to video conferences using BigBlueButton. The OSMF video server is https://osmvideo.cloud68.co/ and is available to the wider OpenStreetMap community for OSM events.

Agenda

  • Topics: are typically proposed by board members. The Secretary is responsible for finalising the agenda.
  • Topics' lock: topics get locked one week before the meeting. Time-sensitive issues can still be added to the agenda after that deadline and these are mentioned during the "Any other business" sections.
  • Topic titles: usually set by board members or by the Administrative Assistant, if a title has not been provided.
  • Topics' background sections: created and added by the Administrative Assistant - if enough information and time are available - without first being viewed by the board.

Minutes
Below are links to minutes of past board meetings and video chats. To inform members of board meeting discussion and decisions more quickly, we post draft “unapproved” minutes. These are created and added by the Administrative Assistant without first being viewed by the board in most cases. The public board minutes are formally voted on at the next public board meeting and, until then, are subject to change. Minutes of board chats are not formally approved.

Working groups and committees also publish minutes. These can be found at: Working Group Minutes, Committees Minutes.
